Although Kimi Raikkonen says that it’s hard to motivate himself under super rally conditions, the Finn has promised to make the most of the opportunity to accumulate more kilometres on asphalt.
Having re-joined the Rally Bulgaria this morning after an off on the fourth stage yesterday, Raikkonen is currently 20th. On the opening stage this morning he was fifth fastest, while on the second stage he was eighth fastest.
“The motivation is not the same if you are not fighting at the front,” he pointed out. “You don’t push so much when the conditions are tricky. But it’s very important that we were able to start the rally again today. At the moment, it’s all about testing for us. We need to get back our confidence and then hopefully we can set some quick times.”
Weather conditions this afternoon in Bulgaria look set to be mixed with a high chance of rain. Like most of the WRC crews, Raikkonen has chosen Pirelli’s soft option PZero tyres for the afternoon loop of three stages.
Following overnight repairs to his Citroen Junior Team C4 WRC, Raikkonen reported no mechanical problems.
